Abstract

Background:Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction is a very common disease, especially in elderly patients treated in the intensive care unit. Objective: To evaluate the clinical and paraclinical characteristics and the effectiveness of treating patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction with dapagliflozin in the intensive care unit, An Giang Cardiovascular Hospital in 2024. Materials and methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted on 130 patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction treated with standard background regimens, divided into two groups: group A of 65 patients treated with dapagliflozin and group B of 65 patients not using dapagliflozin. Results: The mean ages of the dapagliflozin-treated and untreated groups were 69.5 ± 10.2 and 71.3 ± 11.5 years, respectively; the mean ejection fractions were 28.1 ± 3.5% and 30.4 ± 3.9%, respectively. The rates of adverse events such as urinary tract infection, hypotension, hyperkalemia, bradycardia, hypoglycemia, and acute kidney injury were not significantly different in the dapagliflozin-treated group compared with the untreated group (p > 0.05). The rate of hospitalization for heart failure in the dapagliflozin-treated group (15.3%) was lower than that of the other group (41.5%) (p = 0.040). Conclusion: Dapagliflozin demonstrated certain therapeutic benefits in the management of HFrEF, with a comparable incidence of adverse events to that observed in patients not receiving the drug.
